Abstract:
:Although nitric oxide (NO) plays key signaling roles in the nervous systems, excess NO leads to cell death. In this study, the involvement of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) and apoptosis signal-regulating kinase-1 (ASK1) in NO-induced cell death was investigated in PC12 cells. NO donor transiently activated p38 MAPK in the wild type parental PC12 cells, whereas the p38 MAPK activation was abolished in NO-resistant PC12 cells (PC 12-NO-R). p38 MAPK inhibitors protected the cells against NO-induced death, whereas the inhibitors were not significantly protective against the cytotoxicity of reactive oxygen species. Stable transfection with dominant negative p38 MAPK mutant reduced NO-induced cell death. Stable transfection with dominant negative mutant of ASK1 attenuated NO-stimulated activation of p38 MAPK and decreased NO-induced cell death. These results suggest that p38 MAPK and its upstream regulator ASK1 are involved in NO-induced PC12 cell death.
